CYBERDELIK Offer Upgrade
User ID: 55405031 Australia 03/10/2014 03:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just started watching this show through to the 7th episode... just wanted to recommend this show to GLPers. In addition to being overtly influenced and inspired by pulp detective fiction, True Detective incorporates elements and themes from the weird supernatural horror genre. This includes quotations from and direct references to Robert W. Chambers' classic 1895 book The King in Yellow and lines of dialogue directly inspired by the works of modern-day cult horror author Thomas Ligotti. The series' writer and showrunner, Nic Pizzolatto, has directly acknowledged and commented on these influences in an interview given to The Wall Street Journal.[28] In the same article Pizzolatto recommends modern-day horror authors Karl Edward Wagner, Laird Barron, John Langan, Simon Strantzas and the recent anthology A Season in Carcosa. Wall Street Journal writer Michael Calia has offered some commentary and analysis on these influences,[29] as has the website io9.[30] Interest in the Chambers connection resulted in The King in Yellow shooting up into Amazon.com's top ten bestseller list in February 2014.[31] There has also been some discussion of the influence of comic book writers Alan Moore and Grant Morrison on the plot and philosophy of the series, as analyzed by Sam Adams at Indiewire,[32] initially stemming from a quote that Pizzolatto gave to The Courier-Journal in 2010.[33] Fukunaga also expressed interest in surrealist filmmaker David Lynch, and cited Lynch's process filming Twin Peaks as an influence.[34] Last Edited by CYBERDELIK on 03/10/2014 03:20 AM Anything in life worth doing is worth overdoing.

Starts off slow but picks up around the 4-5th episode. Anything in life worth doing is worth overdoing. Moderation's for cowards. |
